- You'll need an all-metal pan to take this dish from the stove to the oven in the true frittata style. (Alternatively, the portions could be baked in individual ramekins, just mix all the the ingredients into the eggs, then pour into the ramekins and bake). Made with egg substitute, this is a more healthful and low fat brunch item, great accompanied by fresh fruit and mimosas made with prosecco.
ARTICHOKE SPINACH FRITTATA
This is a very good lowfat version of a crustless quiche that I adapted from several recipes. Fat can be further reduced by using canned artichoke hearts in water.

ARTICHOKE FRITTATA
This rich, delicious, and easy-to-make appetizer can be served warm or cool. I sometimes use grated low-fat cheese and find that it is just as tasty and less greasy. Dried parsley works, too.
